چکیده

Gioan showed that the number of cycle reversing classes of totally cyclic orientations of a given graph can be calculated as an evaluation of the corresponding Tutte polynomial. We note that the concept of cycle reversing classes of orientations coincides with that of Eulerianequivalence classes considered by Chen and Stanley, and Kochol. Based on this coincidence, we give a bijective proof of Gioan’s result. Precisely, the main result of the paper is an algorithmic bijection between the set of Eulerian-equivalence classes of totally cyclic orientations and the set of spanning trees without internally active edges.

Equivalences on Acyclic Orientations

The cyclic and dihedral groups can be made to act on the set Acyc(Y ) of acyclic orientations of an undirected graph Y , and this gives rise to the equivalence relations ∼κ and ∼δ, respectively. These two actions and their corresponding equivalence classes are closely related to combinatorial problems arising in the context of Coxeter groups, sequential dynamical systems, the chip-firing game, ...

A unified bijective method for maps: application to two classes with boundaries

Based on a construction of the first author, we present a general bijection between certain decorated plane trees and certain orientations of planar maps with no counterclockwise circuit. Many natural classes of maps (e.g. Eulerian maps, simple triangulations,...) are in bijection with a subset of these orientations, and our construction restricts in a simple way on the subset. This gives a gen...

Asymptotic enumeration of Eulerian circuits for graphs with strong mixing properties

Let G be a simple connected graph all of whose vertices have even degrees. An Eulerian circuit in G is a closed walk (see, for example, [2]) which uses every edge of G exactly once. Two Eulerian circuits are called equivalent if one is a cyclic permutation of the other. It is clear that the size of such an equivalence class equals the number of edges of graph G. Let EC(G) denote the number of e...

Posets from Admissible Coxeter Sequences

We study the equivalence relation on the set of acyclic orientations of an undirected graph Γ generated by source-to-sink conversions. These conversions arise in the contexts of admissible sequences in Coxeter theory, quiver representations, and asynchronous graph dynamical systems. To each equivalence class we associate a poset, characterize combinatorial properties of these posets, and in tur...

Matroidal bijections between graphs

We study a hierarchy of five classes of bijections between the edge sets of two graphs: weak maps, strong maps, cyclic maps, orientable cyclic maps, and chromatic maps. Each of these classes contains the next one and is a natural class of mappings for some family of matroids. For example, f: E(G) --t E(H) is cyclic if every cycle (eulerian subgraph) of G is mapped onto a cycle of H. This class ...
